GuoShuiFa [2004] No. 9

January 16th, 2004

The administrations of state taxation and local taxation of all provinces, autonomous regions, municipalities directly under the Central
Government, and cities directly under state planning:

In recent years, there have been, in some regions, issues of formulating preferential tax policies in excess of authority and of implementing
them in violation of regulations, and of deducting or exempting taxes arbitrarily in the construction of development zones, and the
issue is more serious in a few regions. With a view to strengthening and regulating taxation administration on development zones,
firmly putting down and correcting issues of tax deduction or exemption in excess of authority, and maintaining the dignity and unification
of the state tax law, so as to ensure the orderly construction of development zones and promote the healthy development of socialist
market economy, the State Administration of Taxation determines to sort out and check the preferential tax policies of development
zones according to the relevant provisions of the State Council, and hereby makes the following Circular on the relevant issues:

The scope of sorting out and checking the preferential tax policies

The economic and technological development zones, coastal economic opening zones, high and new technology industrial development zones
and other state-level gardens and zones established upon the approval of the State Council;

The various development zones established upon the approval of the provincial governments; and;

The various development zones established by all levels of governments themselves under the provincial level.

II.

Contents of sorting out and checking the preferential tax policies

Whether, in the development zones established upon the approval of the State Council, there are issues of granting preference tax
on enterprises in excess of the provisions of the uniform policies of the state:

(1)

Whether an enterprise that enjoys preferential tax policies of development zones is registered in a development zone but operates
its business outside the zone;

(2)

Whether the preferential tax is granted to an enterprise whose qualifications as a “newly-established enterprise” hasn’t been examined
strictly; or

(3)

Whether there are issues of enlarging the scope of application for preferential tax policies, increasing preferential proportion,
or extending preferential terms without permission.

Whether, in the various development zones established upon the approval of the provincial governments, there are issues of formulating
preferential tax policies of development zones in excess of the power of taxation administration, or issues of enjoying state-level
preferential tax policies of the development zones by reference. And

Whether the various development zones established by all levels of governments themselves under the provincial level have any issue
of illegally formulating preferential tax policies and enjoying preferential tax policies of development zones of the state level
or provincial level by reference.

III.

Methods of sorting out and checking the preferential tax policies

The sorting out and checking of the preferential tax policies this time shall adopt methods of self-examination of the grass root
tax authorities and selective examination by the upper level tax authorities. Before the end of March of 2004, the tax authorities
of the cities (prefectures) or counties (districts) shall carry out self-examination and self-correction, which shall be checked
and accepted by the provincial tax authorities. In the April of 2004, the State Administration of Taxation shall make selective examinations
in the tax law enforcement inspection.

IV.

Requirements for the sorting out and checking of the preferential tax policies

Improving understanding, earnestly strengthening the organization of and guidance to the work of sorting out and checking. It is an
important act to carry out the sorting out and examination on preferential tax policies of development zones for practicing the important
thought of “Three Represents”, sticking to the principle of “gathering money for the state, enforcing law for the people”, strengthening
taxation administration, rectifying and regulating taxation order, and meeting with the requirements of the WTO. The tax authorities
at all levels shall strengthen the concept of legal system and awareness to overall situation, strengthen organization and guidance
earnestly, implement the system of top leader responsibility, and carry out the sorting out and checking work earnestly under the

prohibited in the sorting out so as to ensure the deepening of the inspection, and the downright sorting out, as well as getting
actual effect.

Performing duties, earnestly checking on, and strictly implementing the uniform preferential tax policies of development zones of
the state. All levels of tax authorities shall immediately stop the enforcement of preferential tax policies of development zones
formulated by the local regions in excess of authority, and propose to the organs thereof that they correct them, if the correction
cannot be made temporarily, that shall be reported to the State Administration of Taxation level by level. Those preferential tax
policies of development zones that are implemented in violation of regulations shall be corrected resolutely, and the taxes unpaid
in the year 2003 shall be added to the original amount. Those enterprises that evade taxes or cheat in tax payment by availing themselves
of the preferential tax policies of development zones shall be investigated into and punished by putting them on records according
to law. In case the tax authorities fail to strictly implement the tax law, practice favoritism and malpractices, or are involved
in breach of duty or derelict of duty, the responsible persons and the persons directly liable shall be punished seriously in accordance
with the relevant provisions.

All levels of tax authorities shall, according to the uniform disposition by the State Administration of Taxation, complete various
tasks of sorting out and checking the preferential tax policies, summarize them earnestly, and report the situations to the State
Administration of Taxation according to the facts. Each region shall report the summary of the work of sorting out and checking and

which can not be recovered:

As of January 1, 2004, where a foreign-funded enterprise engaging in telecommunication industry is unable to recover the fees defaulted
by customers, whether previously or newly incurred, after one year as of the date of default, such defaulted sums may be dealt with
as the loss of bad debt, but payment for such loss shall be specified in the report form.

Where the localities draw the provision for bad debt for telecommunication enterprises in accordance with Paragraph 1 of Article 9
